The well-bred CRYSTAL OCEAN can get off the mark at the second time of asking by taking this 1m2f maiden event on his seasonal debut. The selection is closely related to a number of high-class middle-distance performers and can get the better of the unraced Peterport who is another well-bred individual and who represents 2016's winning stable. Another unraced colt Forever Song can claim third on his debut here ahead of Okool who ran well in a couple of races over shorter as a juvenile.
